So if you’re using jQuery UI dialogs, you may run into issues with IE 7. Apparently the value of a usually ‘undefined’ javascript variable can get set to ‘NaNpx’ in IE7. I had to change the jQuery base code to get a dialog ui component to work.<\/p>\n

I was getting the following runtime error: “Line: 1102 Error: invalid argument.”<\/p>\n

This error comes from code around line 1101 in jquery-1-2-6.js.<\/p>\n

So I think my version of jQuery had already been modified or comes from an older or different source. My code follows, but the most recent 1-2-6 jQuery script has code that is like the comment Dom left (thanks – that code looks more like the most recent release of jQuery).<\/p>\n
